The birth of Grey Forest Walt

I re-read this birth story this morning. I first read it years ago, and it's definitely one of the most beautiful things I've ever read. This woman gave birth to her son naturally, in the wilderness. The pictures are amazing! It's stories like this that make me want to rethink my decision to give up on becoming a midwife. Mmmmmmm....

Do you know where theese pictures have been moved? I know they are still posted somewhere, but I can't find them...
I would love to see them as I am planning for a homebirth, and remember being touched by this birth story before.

They are still at the link in my post, http://rachyllgyne.tripod.com/thebirthofgreyforestwalt/birth.html. I just double checked and they''re there. I do think they were somewhere else before. Once you get to the main page you can use the links in the left column to navigate through the story and see the pictures.
